About Me

I have written 20 books, including the BUDDY trilogy and the four books in the BEAVER TOWERS series . Five of the books - COLLISION COURSE, THE FINDERS, OUT OF THE DARKNESS, BUDDY'S BLUES, and TIME BOMB - have won prizes. I have had a number of short stories published in various collections.
I have also written screenplays for TV and movies, and lyrics for songs, including the songs for the soundtrack of the movie BUDDY'S SONG for which I got Gold and Platinum discs. My latest songwriting project has been the nine songs for a stage adaptation of BEAVER TOWERS.
I frequently visit schools in the UK and other countries including China, Germany and Eire to give talks to pupils about writing.
